Abstract: Cataloguing departments have faced enourmous transitions during the last 20 years due to technolgical advances, changing administrative goals, and shrinking budgets. The responsibilities of professional cataloguers have greatly expanded and now include management, budgeting, and planning. Research indicates that entry-level cataloguers feel unprepared for managerial responsibilities by their graduate education. Educators and practitioners should examine the need for potential cataloguing managers and consider changing library school curricula in an effective and realistic manner to support this trend

Abstract

Reports on the results of a survey of 79 entry level cataloguers in US academic libraries designed to gather data that would characterize their opinions and experiences of cataloguing work. This information might then suggest an approach to addressing the difficulties in recruiting and retaining qualified applicants to cataloguing positions. Questions were asked on: prior job experience; library education; current work environment; career goals; and the reasons why these librarians believe they may or may not remain in cataloguing. The study also revealed attitudes to cataloguing expressed by library educators and professional colleagues. Many deficiencies in library education in preparation for cataloguing were perceived by respondents
